The Phone Call July 25, 2009
It was twelve midnight when my phone rang. I said “Hello?” for a couple of time before the caller hung up. It was a good thing that I wasn’t asleep yet or I would have been really annoyed.
A few days after my telephone rang at two in the morning. I picked up the receiver and before I could say anything, the caller hung up. I was to sleepy to even bother who it was. I just went back to sleep.
I was busy packing some old useless stuff from my closet to give away including old sweaters, t-shirts, jeans, boots, and sneakers. There were books I would be donating too. There was even a book on cake decorating tips. Wait, I better hold on to that one.
After a few hours and everything was packed, the phone rang. I looked at the clock, it was still seven in the evening. I said “hello?” and the caller replied with a shy “Hi, Lorie.” I could not believe it. Was it really Claire?
Claire was a friend in high school. She stopped talking to me when she thought that I also had a crush on her then crush, David. Well, it wasn’t true but she never believed me.
